MY INSPIRATION
About 35 years ago, a friend’s mother gave me a generous bowl of homemade banana pudding mixed with crushed pineapples.
I was hooked the first time I tasted it. To this day, I still love it.
The crushed pineapples add tasty bursts of flavor.
I will always love this tangy flavor twist and it is my pleasure to share it with you!
INGREDIENTS
The five ingredients are: bananas, vanilla wafers, whole milk, Vanilla Instant Pudding and Pie Filling (not banana flavored), and crushed pineapples.
This recipe calls for Vanilla Instant Pudding and Pie Filling (not banana flavored).
In my opinion, the pie filling tastes MUCH better.
Evaporated Milk makes the pudding slightly creamier than whole milk.
THE CREAMY BANANA FILLING
In a medium bowl, whisk together Vanilla Instant Pudding and Pie Filling (not banana flavored) and Evaporated Milk until well combined.
TASTES BETTER AFTER 24 HOURS IN FRIDGE
For best results, cover dessert’s container with a tight lid and refrigerate for 24 hours.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Although Banana Pineapple Pudding is good immediately after preparation, it’s much better chilled before serving.
ENJOY!

- Smooth pudding over top. Gently smooth remaining 1/4 cup of crushed pineapples (if using) over top of pudding.
